Definitions

  • a mounting arrangement for mounting an object to a support structure at a predetermined distance from the latter is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,182,091 granted January 8, 1980 to Fischer, comprising an expansion sleeve insertable into a hole of the support structure, an expander screw adapted to pass through a hole of the object to be mounted and to be anchored in the expansion sleeve, and a sleeve-shaped spacer member having an inner hole, and adapted to be fitted onto the expander screw and insertable into the object to be mounted.
  • the spacer member has resiliently yieldable elements adapted to be spring-loaded after insertion of the space member into the hole of the object be mounted, operative for gripping the latter, and also having further elements for fixing the spacer member to the expander screw.
  • Adjustment of a distance at which the object might be mounted relative to the support structure is performed by varying the depth of threading for the expander screw into the expansion sleeve.
  • these types of spacer members are arranged with the gripping elements arranged to take up contact with two opposed surfaces of the object to be mounted, i.e. the this object must have a cross-sectional depth strictly conforming to the distance between the gripping elements.
  • These types of spacer members can be regarded as acceptable when used for mounting metal sections, which have a cross-sectional wall thickness manufactured within close tolerances, and also hard surface properties.
  • U.S. Patent No. 3,667,338 granted June 6, 1972 to Johansson discloses a device for adjustable spaced interconnection of two elements, comprising a screw member to be screwed into the supporting element, and having an externally screw threaded tubular nut member surrounding the head of the screw member, arranged to be screwed into the other element.
  • the tubular nut member is arranged rotatable in relation to the screw member, while maintaining a relative axial position in relation thereto.
  • This device can be used for adjustable spaced interconnection of a wooden door or window frame to a support structure.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a device for the above purpose which includes a conventional and commercially available screw as an essential element, thereby easily modified with regard to attachment length in the supporting structure, also with regard to space between the supporting structure and the adjustably mounted object.
  • the device includes a tubular member, preferably manufactured from a plastics material, which reduces manufacturing costs, but also results in advantages with regard to resistance against corrosion.
  • An essential advantage of the present invention is that the device can be attached and adjusted with use of conventional tools.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide a device which does not extend beyond the the external surface of the object to be attached.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first example of an embodiment of a device according to the present invention, arranged to support an object 1, hereinafter referred to as a frame member, in a spaced relationship to a support structure 2, hereinafter referred to as a wall element.
  • the device comprises a tubular member, as a complete unit denominated 3, which is shown more in detail in Figs. 2-4.
  • One end portion is arranged as a disc-shaped member 4 having an enlarged area, in use intended to be located by the surface of the frame member 1 which is located nearby the surface of the wall element 2.
  • the tubular member 3 is arranged with a guiding portion 5 and a centrally located through hole 6, into which a screw 7 is insertable.
  • a substantially conical resiliently yieldable stop member 8 is arranged, which alternatively may comprise of a ringshaped annular part or of a number of individual members having a ringshaped location.
  • said conical stop member 8 has a restricting surface extending substantially transversely in relation to the length axis of the tubular member 3, and from this transversely extending surface, an outwardly inclined surface extends.
  • the tubular member 3 also includes an external screw threaded portion 9, extending from the disc-shaped member 4, and advantegously arranged having a pitch with opposed direction of extension relative the pitch of the screw 7, i.e. left-hand threaded when a screw 7 with conventional right-hand threaded screw pitch is used.
  • a mounting hole is first drilled in the frame member 1 with a diameter adapted to suit the external diameter of the tubular member 3.
  • the tubular member 3 Prior to positioning the frame member 1 in the attachment location, previously described tubular members 3 are inserted from the surface plane to be located closest to the surface of the wall element 2 into the mounting holes taken up in the frame member 1, whereby the disc-shaped member 4 is located adjacent to said surface plane.
  • the tubular member 3 is advantageously screwed into said hole.
  • Such an operation is easily performed, for example by arranging the disc-shaped member 4 with a multisided external configuration, e.g. a hexagonal configuration as indicated with broken lines in Fig. 2, or by arranging the through hole 6 with a multisided cross-sectional shape, preferably hexagonal, whereby a conventional Allen wrench can be used for the mounting operation.
  • a multisided external configuration e.g. a hexagonal configuration as indicated with broken lines in Fig. 2
  • a multisided cross-sectional shape preferably hexagonal
  • the frame member 1 obviously can be arranged with a countersunk portion in the plane adjacent to the wall element 2 (not shown), having a depth and a diameter substantially corresponding to the height and size of the disc-shaped member 4, in order to accomplish a substantially smooth and level surface between the frame member 1 and the disc-shaped member 4.
  • the frame member is thereafter mounted in desired location with use of wedges or similar, whereafter the screws 7, intended to establish the attachment, are applied.
  • Each screw 7 is tightened substantially completely, and during the final part of this operation, the head of the screw 7 will pass the conical members 8, and thus be located between two restricting surfaces, defined by the bottom portion from which the hole 6 extends and the transversely extending surface of the conical members 8.
  • the tubular member 3 is now well anchored to the frame member 1, since it on one hand is prevented from performing an axial displacement movement from the surface located adjacently to the wall member 2 by means of the disc-shaped member 4, and on the other hand is prevented from performing an axial displacement movement in the opposed direkcion due to the interconnecting grip established by means of the outwardly expanded threaded portion 9, which advantageously is arranged with a screw thread having good attachment properties minimizing the risk for withdrawal from the frame member 1, e.g. with a ground down thread section having a substantially square or rectangular cross-­section, or with a screw thread section in which the surface closest to the disc-shaped member 4 extends in a substantially perpendicular relationship to the length axis of the tubular member 3.
  • a covering lidshaped member 10 is advantageously attached at the open portions of the holes in the frame member 1, and such lidshaped members 10 may, as shown, be arranged extending to a position seized by the tubular member, or be arranged in contact with the internal surface of an outer portion of the holes.
  • the tubular member 3 is advantageously manufactured from a plastics material as a single and integral unit. This results in a simple and low cost unit in combination with a conventional screw 7.
  • an Allen screw 7 is preferably used, i.e. with a screw head having a female hexagonal portion, whereby one wrench only can be used to attach the tubular member 3 to the frame member 1 and also to mount/adjust the screw 7.
  • the tubular member 3 may advantageously be arranged including at least one through slot 11, extending from the end portion by which the disc-shaped member 4 is arranged, and an example of such a modification is shown in Figs. 5 and 6.
  • Figs. 5 and 6 disclose how a through slot 11 has been taken up in longitudinal direction of the tubular member 3, and with an extension smaller than the length of the tubular member 3. Since the existance of one or a number of such slots 11 makes it possible to reduce the external diameter of the tubular member 3 when same is inserted into a surrounding hole, this embodiment also facilitates that the externally screw threaded portion 9 is given a larger diameter by the portion located adjacent to the disc-shaped member 4, e.g.
  • the slot 11 is arranged to divide part of the tubular member 3 into two parts.
  • the slot 6 may also be arranged to extend radially from the center axis in only one direction, and a number of such slots 11 can also be used, e.g.
  • a slot 11 e.g. as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, obviously also can be used to interconnect with a tool when mounting the tubular member 3 in a frame member 1, e.g. when the hole 6 in the tubular member 3 has been arranged having a cylindrical cross-sectional configuration, and when the disc-shaped member 4 also has been arranged having a cylindrical configuration, and neither the hole 6, nor the disc-shaped member 4, have been arranged to facilitate interconnection with a mounting tool.
  • a tubular member 3 was manufactured from diethylacetal, and with the externally screw threaded portion 9 having a M15 screw thread (left-hand threaded) with a threaded length of 18 mm.
  • the head of the screw 7 was held against withdrawal by means of an internal conical member 8, being six individual parts in a ringshaped configuration with the extension towards the center axis of the tubular member 3 being so restricted (0.5 - 1.0 mm) that the screw head would pass same when the screw 7 was tightened.
  • a force was applied against the screw 7, arranged to cause a displacement movement of the screw 7 out from the tubular member 3, in order to determin the holding force established by the aforementioned conical member 8, and this force was found to be 920 N.
  • the tubular member 3 was mounted in a frame member 1 manufactured from dry Swedish pine-wood, whereafter necessary force to withdraw the tubular member 3 in a direction opposed to the mounting direction was measured, and the required force was found to be 3700 N.
  • results indicated above relate to a prototype embodiment, and these results may thus be further improved by means of certain modifications, e.g. by means of the modifications described above for obtaining an improved contact against the mounting hole into which the tubular member 3 is inserted.
  • screw thread may also include portions having a substantially similar configuration, e.g. a portion formed by means of adjacently located annular and outwardly or inwardly directed formations, arranged to be forced into contact with the internal wall surface of a hole into which the tubular member 3 has been inserted by means of a substantially linear displacement before being diametrically expanded by means of the screw 7.
  • additional members 12, 12′ as shown in Figs. 7 and 8.
  • the tubular member 3 is arranged with short through slots, in which wedgeshaped gripping members 12, 12′ are located. These members are located in the position of Fig. 8 when the tubular member 3 is inserted into the hole taken up in the frame member 1, and when the screw 7 is inserted into the hole 6, these members 12, 12′ expand radially into the frame member 3, thereby anchoring the tubular member 3 against withdrawal from the frame member 1.
  • the number of such additional members 12, 12′ can be varied as desired, but two or four such members 12, 12′ are normally sufficient to obtain extremely good attachment properties.
  • These additional members 12, 12′ are as a rule manuafactured from metal, but may also comprise of tongueshaped members, formed integral with the tubular member 3, normally having the free end portion located directed towards the disc-shaped member 4.
